The B.S.B.A. in Finance prepares students for professional careers in areas such as corporate financial management, financial institutions management, investments, and financial planning. The program also provides the foundation to pursue the designation of Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) or the Certified Financial Planning (CFP). In addition to the general studies requirements, students must satisfy all additional University requirements, including the Gordon Rule, multicultural, and foreign language requirements. With appropriate planning and coordination with an academic advisor, students may satisfy some of the general University requirements through the General Studies curriculum. State mandated common prerequisites must be completed prior to graduation, but are not required for admission to the program.
